On the first floor of the Demon Palace.
The zombie's eyes were already moving. It scanned the crowd, emitting a bloodthirsty aura.
Li Mu had seen many zombies. From Walking Zombies, Jumping Zombies, to Flying Zombies, he had fought many of them. The one in front of him was undoubtedly the strongest zombie he had ever seen.
After three thousand years, the corpse was already at the Sixth Realm when it had just become a corpse. How powerful must the owner of this corpse have been when he was alive? Li Mu was already suspecting whether this was the corpse of the Demon Emperor Bai Di.
At that time, he did not dare to confirm. After all, most cultivators would not leave behind a corpse after death.
Before their lifespan ended, most of them would choose to self-destruct and return everything to the dust.
Although the physical body could still exist after the spirit dissipated, it was already a different creature from the original body. Once it became a corpse, it would bring disaster to the human world. When people died and destroyed their corpses, they were responsible for others, and also responsible for themselves.
How could the Demon Emperor not understand this principle?
However, after this corpse swallowed the two Fifth Level demons, its body became plump, and it vaguely resembled a human. Its face was vaguely recognizable, and it looked similar to the statues outside the Demon Emperor Palace. Li Mu had no choice but to believe it.
The demon corpses outside the Demon Palace and the corpses in the stone coffins inside the palace all proved this point.
Li Mu even suspected that the demon corpses were purposely left behind by someone.
His goal was to deplete the spiritual power of those who entered here. In fact, to clear the demon corpses, their Fu-lu, elixirs, and spiritual jades were almost depleted. The great battle in the Demon Palace had also depleted much of their spiritual power.
Now that he thought about it, the treasures placed in the Demonic Emperor Palace were more like bait than the inheritance that the White Emperor had given to the younger generation of the Demonic Emperor. They were tempted to kill each other so that the stone coffin would absorb their flesh and blood and awaken the sleeping corpses.
If everything was as Li Mu guessed, then Emperor Bai was not a great demon with a demon heart, but an old silver coin from 3,000 years ago!
Li Mu could not understand what Emperor Bai was after.
Even if his corpse was resurrected, it wouldn't be him anymore. He had sacrificed so many of his subordinates to set up such a trap. What good would it do him?
The Demon Race respected him as the Demon Emperor. For the past three thousand years, they had been searching for his cave. However, after they went through all kinds of hardships and entered the Demon Emperor's cave, they met a group of dumplings the moment they landed. In the Demon Emperor's palace, there was even a super invincible dumpling waiting for them …
This was a method of harming others without benefiting oneself. Anyone with a little bit of humanity and demonic nature would not do such a thing.
All kinds of evidence proved that Demon Emperor Bai Di was most likely a lunatic with an antisocial personality.
No matter how powerful he was when he was alive, he was now just a corpse without any humanity. After tasting flesh and blood, his ferocious nature was aroused. He let out a low roar and disappeared on the spot.
Bang!
A bear demon lowered his head and looked at his chest. A skinny claw reached out from his chest and grabbed a beating heart.
The corpse only took a light breath, and this bear demon's blood essence and demon soul were sucked into his mouth.
The remaining demons and Demon Sect members started to attack the gate of the Demon Emperor's palace frantically. In this small Demon Emperor's palace, they were like turtles in a jar. Sooner or later, they would become food for this demon corpse.
This corpse was too powerful. Fifth Realm demons could not fight back at all in his hands and had their souls and blood essence sucked away. If they continued to be trapped here, they would soon meet the same end.
A few of the imperial court's high priests and disciples of the six sects gathered around Li Mu.
Although a Sixth Realm demon was powerful, he was just a corpse and could not be a match for everyone here.
However, this Demon Emperor's palace was too small and could not be used fully. It would be easy for this corpse to kill them one by one. If he hid in the coffin again, so many people could not do anything to him. They had to think of a way to escape first.
Li Mu said decisively to everyone, "Everyone, attack this gate with all your might!"
Although everyone had tried to attack together just now, they were not forced to such an extent. Everyone was scheming against each other and did not want to expend too much of their magic power. Once their magic power was exhausted, all their previous efforts would easily go to others.
However, things were different now. If they did not do their best now, they would lose their lives later. Regardless of whether it was the demons or the Demon Sect, they were all attacking this gate with all their might.
Rumble …
Under the full attack of dozens of Fifth Realm powerhouses, the tightly shut gate of the Demon Emperor's palace finally shook.
Dozens of brilliant spells flashed. A golden light flew out from Li Mu's sleeve and crashed into the gate of the Demon Emperor's palace.
Rumble!
The two gates of the Demon Emperor's palace collapsed.
As if they had seen the dawn of hope, everyone in the palace flew out of the palace and came to the square in front of the Demon Emperor's palace.
At this moment, the zombie in the Demon Emperor's palace had also finished absorbing the blood essence and soul of the bear demon.
At this moment, his skin was even more lustrous. He no longer looked like a bag of bones, and his body had also become more plump. He licked his white fangs, and the bloodthirst in his eyes became even more intense. He slowly flew out of the palace.
On the square, the various forces did not have a prior agreement. However, they all had a tacit understanding to work together to kill this zombie.
As soon as the zombie flew out, dozens of magical lights landed on its body.
At this moment, regardless of whether it was the Six Sects, the Demon Sect, or the subordinates of the Demon Kings, they all only had one goal.
Kill this zombie!
Unfortunately, along the way, their Fu-lu, elixirs, formation flags, and other powerful one-time use treasures had long been used up on those demon corpses. After the battle in the Demon Emperor's palace and the destruction of the gate, most of the magic power in their bodies had been used up. The power of the spells that they could use now was also weakened by more than half.
Even so, the simultaneous attack of dozens of Fifth Realm powerhouses had the power to destroy heaven and earth.
The zombie's body was instantly covered by the light of the dozens of spells.
Even if everyone's Dharmic powers were almost depleted, even if the power of their Dharmic spells was not as strong as before, even if the Demonic Corpse had the strength of a Sixth Realm cultivator, when dozens of Fifth Realm cultivators joined forces, even a true Sixth Realm cultivator would have to retreat.
Boom!
The ground shook violently. The aftershock of the spells caused everyone to take a few steps back.
When the dust settled, the zombie's clothes had already been torn into shreds. He leaned against the stone tablet in front of the Demon Emperor's palace. His aura was extremely weak, and there was not much corpse aura left on his body.
Even an ordinary Sixth Realm powerhouse would have a high chance of dying after receiving such an attack. However, this zombie still had a breath of life left. However, there was nothing to be afraid of.
At this moment, a bear demon finally could not hold it in any longer. He roared and charged forward. He said furiously, "Give me back my brother's life!"
Suddenly, a beam of light flashed across the huge statue at the entrance of the Demon Emperor's palace.
A blinding ball of light flew out from the statue and rapidly flew into the zombie's body.
The bear demon's expression changed, and he stopped abruptly in his tracks.
However, after the ball of light flew into the zombie's body, there were no obvious changes to him. His eyes, which were already somewhat lively, fell into confusion instead.
The bear demon gritted his teeth and raised a huge wolf fang club in his hand. He smashed it viciously at the zombie's head.
However, in the next instant, he lowered his head and looked on helplessly as a withered hand pierced through his chest and ruthlessly crushed his still-beating heart.
The bear demon's blood essence and demon soul were sucked into the zombie's mouth.
This scene shocked the others who were watching from afar.
The group's combined attack just now could even kill a Sixth Realm powerhouse. What kind of divine being was this zombie? It clearly only had a breath of life left, but it could still kill the bear demon in such a way …
At this moment, everyone even felt that it was impossible to defeat this zombie.
The only remaining wolf demon was already on the verge of breaking down. He looked at the zombie from afar and said in a trembling voice, "What kind of thing are you?!"
After the zombie swallowed the bear demon's blood essence and soul, his flesh and blood grew a little. He already looked somewhat like a human. The confusion in his eyes gradually disappeared. He stood in front of the Demon Emperor's palace and spoke for the first time.
"I am … Emperor Bai."
